constitution of kenya review commission ckrc ... - ConstitutionNet

hali tuko maskini sana hapa. Hizo pesa zote wanaweka nje za nini? Ukisikia Kenya uchumi yake ni mbaya. Nikumaanisha ya
kwamba hakuna watu wanaangalia kuhusu zile pesa. Ukimchangua MP fulani, akipata kiwango cha pesa, anaweka huko
nyingi, kuliko zile anazo hapa. Kwa nini kusiwe na kiwango ambacho wanaruhusiwa kuweka inje, ikiwa ataenda inje kuitumia.
Ningeuliza, zote zile ziko inje hata ya Moi, hata ya nani, zote ziletwe hapa Kenya, ingalau tuwe tukizitumia, kama sisi ni
wananchi ya Kenya. Uchumi inazoroteka kwa sababu, Kenya inautajiri ya kutosha, lakini pesa zote ziko inje.
Com: Wambua: Asante sana Peter Mwangi. Sasa tutamuita Dr. F. M. Kamau.
Dr. Francis Kamau: Francis Mburu Kamau are my names, and I want to confirm most of the things that have been said here.
First and foremost, after this Constitution is made, it should and its a must, it be taught in schools, and be examinable. Our
children should learn our Constitution, and they should be tested about it, and they should know it. We are talking of a thing we
have never heard, we are talking of a thing we do not know, and those who know it, have been taking advantage of oppressing
us. I want to concur with those people who say that, the Provincial Administration should be abolished. A poor country like
ours, cannot afford to have the President going on foreign tours, every month. So there must be an act in our Constitution,
which restricts the number of times the President should be away from this country.
We should also have an act in our Constitution which says that education must be compulsory for every child born in this
country. The Constitution should have an act which says, that our industries, our workers, our businesses must be protected.
We must protect our industries, we must protect our businessmen, otherwise we shall remain under colonialists all the time, if
we don’t have an act which is protecting our industries.
We should, we all know that Kenyans are God fearing people, and we love him, but we have gone to an extent of misusing the
name of God. There are so many religions in this country that one fails to understand, which direction he is going to follow. We
should have an act in our Constitution, restricting the number religions that should be allowed in our country.
Land policy should be looked at. I see no need why an individual should have a thousand acres in Kitale, Rift Valley, Kiambu,
and the act does not say anything about the utlization of that land. If you have one hundred acres, there must be a caption in the
act, which says what you should do with that land. You are a permanent secretary, and you have two thousand acres in Kitale,
doing nothing with it, all you are thinking about is to import maize, and yet you can grow maize in your shamba.
Retirement age in this country should be uplifted to 62 years of age, because we waste alot of brains. When one reaches the
age of 50 years, the age of 60 years, that is where the brain is, and you are told to go home. That you are not useful any more,
you cannot work, and yet you are the most experienced person at that particular time.
We would like to say, that when a child reaches the age of 18 years, and he is registered, he has an ID card; he should at the
